The national average cost of a kitchen remodel in 2026 is

$27,000 to $50,000, which translates to roughly ($150) per square foot for a standard layout. Most projects fall between $15,000 and $75,000, depending on the size of your space, material selections, and local labor rates.

Estimated Costs by Project Scope

  • Minor / Cosmetic Updates ($15,000 – $25,000): Focuses on surface-level changes like painting walls, refacing existing cabinets, updating hardware, and swapping out a faucet.

  • Mid-Range Remodel ($30,000 – $60,000): Typically includes new semi-custom cabinets, upgraded countertops (like quartz), new flooring, and a standard appliance package.

  • High-End / Luxury ($75,000 – $150,000+): Entails custom cabinetry, premium materials (like natural quartzite), major layout changes, removing walls, and high-end or smart appliance suites.

Measure your doors and drawer fronts for size.

  • We suggest using CabDoor Direct’s Door Worksheet for recording the sizing information. The worksheet is organized to help you gather all the information needed to complete your online order when you are ready. How to Measure Instructions are included as part of the worksheet.

  • For new kitchens using IKEA’s Kitchen Planner, you will need the component list showing the box sizes and IKEA part #’s and your kitchen elevation illustrations for the kitchen. Using the Door Worksheet and Cabinet Door & Drawer Front Identifier, identify the corresponding doors and drawer fronts that go with each cabinet box for the configuration in your elevation illustrations.

Hidden Costs to Watch For

Most estimates don't include these two common cost additions. Plan ahead so your project stays on budget.

Color Matching

If your existing cabinet box frames do not closely match the factory finish of your new doors, the frames may need to be painted or touched up. This can add approximately $500 to $1,500, depending on kitchen size.

Estimated Add-On: $500–$1,500

Hinge Compatibility

Older cabinet boxes may use outdated or exposed hinges. If the face frames need to be modified for modern concealed soft-close hinges, extra labor may be added per opening.
